Chinese New Year 2008 – Year of the Rat Special Giveaway!
The Rat is the first sign of the Chinese zodiac. Legend has it that the Jade Emperor invited the animals for a party. The first of the twelve animals that comprise the Chinese zodiac to arrive was the Rat. Those born in the Year of the Rat are clever, ambitious, hard-working, charming, sociable and are motivated by money and status.
To mark 2008 Year of the Rat, Chinese Arts Centre is celebrating the first animal to make it to the party with a very special offer for the first ten people to come in and wish us ‘Happy New Year of the Rat’ for the first four days of the Chinese New Year.
From Thursday 7 February to Sunday 11 February the first ten people to visit Chinese Arts Centre and bid us ‘Happy New Year of the Rat’ will receive a free limited edition canvas bag designed by Hong Kong artist Joey Leung Ka Yin. The eco-friendly stylish tote specially commissioned by Chinese Arts Centre features a striking line drawing design with the speech bubble ‘So I won’t love you anymore plastic bag’. The quirkily designed shopper normally retails at £8.
